"Mianmian, I..."

Mu Mian angrily shook off her mother's hand, "Don't touch me."

She took a taxi home by herself.

Mu's mother couldn't bear to take a taxi, so she took the bus.

**

At Gu Xiangque's home.

Gu Qianqian arrived with her luggage. She was coming to stay for a few days to help her sister-in-law get rid of Aunt Mu from her house.

So as not to disturb my brother and sister-in-law's time alone.

Gu Qianqian had even come up with a plan.

She sat cross-legged on the sofa, a lollipop in her mouth, looking at her brother with a determined gaze, "Watch me."

Gu Xiangque frowned.

He discovered that his sister was very immature and childish.

However, with Qianqian around, she might actually be able to make a difference. I dare not say anything else, but I have already experienced her unreasonable and tantrum-throwing behavior since she was a child.

It's absolutely phenomenal.

Gu Xiangque raised his hand.

"what."

Gu Qianqian instinctively shrank back, feeling like her brother was about to hit her.

There's something on your head.

Gu Xiangque reached out and removed the dirt from his sister's head. "You're so frivolous, just like when you were little. Let's see who dares to marry you."

Gu Qianqian pouted, "It's not like you have to marry me."

The two siblings started arguing.

At this time.

Mu Mian is back.

She changed her shoes in the entryway.

Hearing a sound coming from the living room, I looked up.

Chen Qianqian?

Why did she come here?

There are three briefcases in the living room. Is she moving in?

Mu Mian's heart clenched again.

feeling bad.

But what's most unsettling isn't Chen Qianqian appearing at home, but rather the unusual intimacy between her and Gu Xiangque.

Like now.

Gu Xiangque's hand was on Chen Qianqian's head.

Their bodies were almost touching.

Mu Mian wondered what Gu Xiangque and Chen Qianqian would do at home alone if she hadn't come back.

She dared not think in that direction.

"Teacher Mu, you're back."

Gu Qianqian greeted him with a smile, her voice sweet and unique to young girls, a pure innocence that Mu Mian could never learn.

No wonder Gu Xiangque was moved.

"Ah."

Mu Mian responded, but she didn't want to speak.

"Teacher Mu, the water pipe in my brother's house burst, and the floor was also damaged by the flood. He needs to find someone to renovate it."

I might be staying at your place for a few days.

"Are you available?" Gu Qianqian asked.

Mu Mian, however, was looking after Xiang Que.

It was clearly him who brought the person back.

Didn't we bring her back whether it was convenient or not? If she says it's inconvenient now, do you think Gu Xiangque will send her away?

"I don't have any problems, as long as it's convenient for him."

A faint sadness lingered in Mu Mian's eyes.

She clearly had doubts, but she never asked.

“Of course he agreed.” Gu Qianqian cutely took Gu Xiangque’s hand. “Right, brother?”

Mu Mian: Brother?

They call each other so affectionately.

Mr. Gu, who was being called "brother," must be feeling very pleased right now.

"You guys chat, I'm tired."

Mu Mian went back to her room.

I'm feeling very down.

"Brother, what's wrong with sister-in-law? She seems unhappy." Gu Qianqian asked.

Gu Xiangque also noticed it.

Yesterday he didn't know what made Mu Mian angry, but now he does. "Isn't it all because of you?" Gu Xiangque pushed his sister away.

"If your sister-in-law causes trouble for me, I'll deal with you."

Gu Qianqian pouted: What did I do now?

I just wanted to help you and your sister-in-law.

My good intentions were wasted; I'll tell my mom about it later.

**

In the master bedroom.

Mu Mian lay alone in bed.

He curled up.

He looks very hurt.

Gu Xiangque stood tall by the bed. He felt sorry for Mu Mian when he saw her like this. She was clearly questioning his relationship with Gu Qianqian, but she didn't ask him.

He understood Mu Mian's thoughts.

She has never felt safe since she was a child.

She always felt that others wouldn't treat her well.

Her family of origin brought her too much uncertainty; she longed to be loved but feared that the love might not be pure.

Gu Xiangque went to bed.

He pulled Mu Mian into his arms.

"Go away."

Mu Mian angrily pushed him away.

But Gu Xiangque didn't get down; instead, he forcefully pulled Mu Mian into a hug. "What happened to your face?"

He hadn't noticed it before, but now he has.

There is a very deep palm print.

"Who hit him?"

Gu Xiangque was very angry.

His wife is the apple of his eye; he wouldn't even say a harsh word to her. Who would dare to hit her?

He was going to stomp that man's hand off.

Mu Mian didn't want to talk about it.

She felt that Gu Xiangque's concern for her was tinged with guilt, as he was kind to her while also being kind to Chen Qianqian.

Men, you know.

They really are animals that think with their lower bodies.

"You've been in a bad mood these past two days. Is it because of Qianqian?" Gu Xiangque asked.

"No."

Mu Mian pushed him away again.

Check it out.

The way they address each other is so affectionate.

flourishing.

They say they're alright? Nobody believes that.

"Qianqian and I are not in the kind of relationship you think we have. I swear to you, Gu Xiangque, you are the only woman I will ever have in my life."

I've never slept with any other woman besides you.

It's even more impossible for Qianqian and me.

Because Gu Qianqian is his biological younger sister, born to the same mother.

How can this be.

But Mu Mian was still angry.

Because Gu Xiangque's explanation was not convincing at all, "What you think is your business, Mr. Gu, please remember our agreement."

If you have a girl you like, please be sure to tell Mu Mian first, so that she can be mentally prepared for a divorce.

We'll start dating again after the divorce.

Mu Mian was unaware that their relationship had become impure.

As for Chen Qianqian wanting to stay at home, Mu Mian had no objection, but she was only doing so because Chen's assistant had helped sell the dresses.

It's to give Assistant Chen face.

Well, it seems like I can't coax him.

Gu Xiangque handed Mu Mian a card, stuffed it into her collar, and asked, "What's this?"

He said, "Didn't you ask Chen Fang to help you sell dresses?"

The dress sold, the money's all in the card, the PIN is your birthday.

Mu Mian immediately sat up.

She checked her balance on her phone, and there was actually... in her account.
